EXHAUST VENTS

AIR INTAKE VENT

(Bottom)

The projector uses a lamp which generates

significant heat. The cooling fans and air vents are

provided to dissipate the heat by drawing air into the

housing and the filter is located in the intake vent to

prevent dust from getting inside of the projector.

In order to care for the projector appropriately,

regular cleaning is required. Remove any dirt or dust

that has accumulated on the projector.

If the projector reaches a time set in the timer

setting, the icon as shown in Fig. 1 appears on the

screen and WARNING FILTER indicator lights up (see

below), indicating that cleaning or replacing the filter

is necessary.

If the projector detects that the filter is clogged, the

icon as shown in Fig. 2 appears on the screen and

WARNING FILTER indicator lights up (see below).

Stop using the projector immediately and replace the

electrostatic honeycomb filter and the electrostatic

pleated filter.

Blocking the air vents and leaving the projector

uncleaned for a long time may not only damage the

projector and may require costly repairs but may also

cause accidents or fire.

For maintenance of the filter, refer to “Filter counter”

on page 68 and “Maintenance and Care” on pages

72-74.

Damages to the projector caused by using an

uncleaned filter or improper maintenance will

void the warranty on the projector.
